Unsound host free event in Tbilisi

Pole, Heatsick and Thomas Fehlmann have been confirmed for the Polish festival's first edition in Georgia.

Unsound Festival have announced details for a "mini-festival" next month in Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia.

Organizers are calling Unsound Tbilisi "a small step in what we hope will be a longer relationship between Unsound and curators and artists in Georgia." The event will take place over two nights at Mtkvarze, a venue overlooking the Kura River (which, in Georgian, is called Mtkvarze). Its program presents Unsound's signature blend of leftfield club music and fully experimental acts. Headliners include Pole, Heatsick, Thomas Fehlmann and Kangding Ray. Poland and Georgia's music scenes will also be well represented. From the former camp there's Jacek Sienkiewicz (playing as Recognition), Zenial, Robert Piernikowski and Warsaw synth artist Piotr Kurek. From the latter there's Tusia Beridze, Jorjick, Nikakoi and Nika J.

Ben Klock, Answer Code Request and Gerd Janson are also locked in for the club's mammoth celebrations.

More on Pole

The music of Stefan Betke, a.k.a. Pole, is constantly in a subtle state of flux. His recordings are evidence of his music’s evolution, milestones along an open-ended journey. But this does not mean Pole’s albums are provisional or incomplete; on the contrary, they express a kind of perfectionism always aimed at reaching an imagined musical core.View the full artist profile
